Vekic ends Paolini's Wimbledon run
Croatian beats Italian in straight sets to reach semi-finals
Paolini pushed hard but was unable to overcome Vekic's power and precision
Donna Vekic has ended Jasmine Paolini's dream run to the Wimbledon quarter-finals with a straight-sets victory in an entertaining match on Centre Court. The Croatian, who is seeded 10th, was too strong for the Italian, winning in straight sets. Paolini, who was playing in her first Grand Slam quarter-final, pushed Vekic all the way in the second set but was unable to break down her opponent's serve. Vekic will now face either Barbora Krejcikova or Elena Rybakina in the semi-finals.
